Good Morning, Happy Christmas eve Offshore over the weekend there was a few sailfish and dolphin around in 150 to 200ft to the north of the inlet live and dead bait have both produced well. The wahoo bite was steady to with a few decent fish around first light and late in the afternoon. The snapper bite has been good with live bait in 60 to 80ft with a few kingfish around. Inshore the trout and red bite has been good around Harbor Branch on soft bait on the outgoing tide. The grouper bite in the river has been good with a few nice fish around the bridges and channel edges. Todays weather info-
